Hello,

Is there a way to convert a closed line feature, e.g. contour line, from a line feature to an area feature?

I want to calculate the stage vs. storage volume for a reservoir. I contoured a DEM and have a closed contour near my dam crest. From a previous thread, know that I can assign an elevation to an area and then have GM give me the volume difference as a function of elevation.

Also, as I have a number of closed line features (contour lines) is there a way to have GM report the area within the closed line feature?

Thanks.

Russ
